Said Palao Wins Esto Es Guerra Semifinal After On‑Camera Kiss That Viewers Call a Snub

The televised celebration drew heavy online criticism because Palao first ran to his teammates instead of immediately greeting his wife.

Overview

  • Said Palao secured the decisive point that gave the Guerreros the semifinal victory on Esto es guerra, a result reported from the show’s July 22 broadcast.
  • Alejandra Baigorria returned to the set to support Palao after a recent 'ampay' controversy in Argentina and approached him during the live celebration.
  • Video of the moment shows Baigorria moving in to kiss Palao while he initially celebrated with teammates, then returning to kiss her before collecting the reported 10,000‑sol prize cheque.
  • Users on TikTok and other social platforms criticized Palao’s initial behavior with comments saying he ignored Baigorria, and those reactions have driven most of the follow‑up coverage.
  • Neither Palao nor Baigorria has issued a public response, and outlets note the couple’s public roles make their on‑air interaction likely to remain a focus of media and social‑media attention.
